France / Created in 2026 / First time in France
This show contains strobe lighting and scenes of a sexual nature. This show contains depictions of fatphobic, queerphobic, racist, Islamophobic, transphobic, sexist and sexual violence.
Halfway between a dystopian tale and a religious poem, La Parabole du Seum attempts to bring together a marginalised community to confront the coming fascism.
The content of this page
The starting point of La Parabole du Seum is Fear and the necessity it creates to organise in order to survive it. For her new creation, Rébecca Chaillon –who left her mark on the 2023 edition with her Carte noire nommée désir –wanted to bring together performers who live on the margins and who actively engage daily with the future and its (im)possibilities. She moves Heaven and Earth, including her home territory of Seine-Saint-Denis, to open up new horizons, composing a work at once astronomical and astrological which brings together text, performance, visual and sound imagery: a parable of venom and anger which seeks to spark dreams, laughter, empathy, and revolt against the coming fascism.
디스토피아적 우화와 종교적 시의 중간 지점에서, La Parabole du Seum은 다가오는 파시즘에 맞서기 위해 소외된 공동체를 하나로 집결시키고자 한다.
